Defining Moments

How I responded to discouragement

  • THE NOISE

    Messages from Family:

    You should major in a program that has more job opportunities.

  • How I responded:

    Overcoming the noise meant coming to my own realization that you only get one life, so do what makes you happy. When your friends and family see you happy, they will be happy for you.
